To assist the performers in achieving the effect of underwater movement on stage, they wear wheel-heeled footwear.[5] To depict the fantasy underwater kingdom, according to the director, the set is "very translucent, takes light beautifully and [is] architectural and sculptural to suggest an underwater world without actually being in real water."[6]


Plot

Act one

The story opens with Prince Eric, his adviser Grimsby and sailors aboard a ship at sea, discussing the "mythical" merfolk that supposedly live under the sea. During which Eric hears a voice and commands it to be followed. ("Fathoms Below") Prince Eric is a fictional character who first appeared in the 1989 Disney animated film The Little Mermaid. ...


Deep on the ocean floor in the merfolk's kingdom, a concert in honor of a defeated coup d'etat by Ursula is underway, being performed by the daughters of Triton the sea king. ("Daughters of Triton") However the youngest daughter, Ariel, is not there, bringing the concert to a grinding halt. Ariel has forgotten about the concert entirely, and is sitting on a rock on the surface, admiring human items she has been collecting. She reveals that she is fascinated with the human world. ("The World Above"). Together with her best friend Flounder, Ariel visits Scuttle the seagull to ask about the human things she's collected, and he explains them somewhat erroneously. ("Human Stuff") Princess Ariel redirects here. ...


Elsewhere, the sea witch Ursula is planning revenge against her brother, King Triton. She explains that she was banished from the palace because she used black magic, and tells her minions Flotsam and Jetsam to keep an eye on Ariel, whom she thinks will be the key to getting the crown and trident. ("I Want the Good Times Back") Ursula is a villainess who first appeared in the 1989 Disney animated feature film, The Little Mermaid. ...


When Ariel returns to the underwater kingdom, she is berated by King Triton, who is angered to learn that she has been on the surface as contact between merfolk and the human world is forbidden. Ariel rushes off, upset, and King Triton assigns Sebastian the crab, whom Ariel made a laughing stock because of her absence at the concert, to watch over Ariel and make sure she doesn't get into any trouble. Ariel sits alone in her grotto, which contains her collection of human things, and sings about how she doesn't believe humans are so bad. ("Part of Your World") Sebastian, voiced by Samuel E. Wright, is a fictional character in Disneys The Little Mermaid (1989). ...


Ariel visits the surface to see Prince Eric's ship and the people in it up close. A storm suddenly hits, and Eric is thrown overboard. He almost drowns, but Ariel saves him and drags him to shore. Ariel realizes that she is falling in love with him, and vows to somehow find a way to be with him. ("Part of Your World" - reprise) Unknown to her, Ursula has seen everything and she now plans to take advantage of Ariel's love for Eric.


Ariel returns to her underwater home, and her changed behavior makes her sisters and Flounder suspect that she's fallen in love. ("She's in Love") On land, Eric is determined to the find the woman who saved his life, but the only clue he has is her voice. ("Her Voice") He and Grimsby come up with the idea of holding a singing contest among the foreign princesses in the hopes that one will be the girl he's looking for.


King Triton learns that Ariel has saved a human, and confronts her. ("The World Above" - reprise) Sebastian tries to cheer Ariel up by pointing out the wonders of the undersea world. ("Under the Sea") Ariel cannot be consoled and "runs away", during which she is confronted by Flotsam and Jetsam, who claim that her aunt Ursula can help her. ("Sweet Child")


Ariel goes to Ursula, who presents a deal: Ariel will be turned into a human for three days, during which she has to get the kiss of true love from Eric. If she does, she'll be human permanently; if not, her soul will belong to Ursula and spend eternity in her "watery hell soaked lair." As payment for the deal, Ariel will have to give up her voice. ("Poor Unfortunate Souls") Ariel signs the agreement with the ink from her aunt's tentacles, and she swims up to the surface, during which her tail falls away to reveal legs.


Act two

Ariel, newly human and mute, is with her friends on the shore. Scuttle and the seagulls give her a pep talk to bring her spirits up. ("Positoovity") Eric soon finds Ariel on the beach, though because she cannot speak, he doesn't know that she was the one who saved his life. He brings Ariel back to his palace, and there she is fascinated by the human world she finds herself in. ("Beyond My Wildest Dreams") That night Chef Louis cooks dinner for Ariel, Grimsby, and Eric. He almost cooks Sebastian for the grand finale, but he manages to escape as Louis, the other chefs, and the maids start chasing after him. ("Les Poissons" / "Les Poissons" - reprise) Later, Eric and Ariel bond when he teaches her to dance. ("One Step Closer"). Meanwhile, Ursula is anxiously waiting for the three days to end. ("I Want The Good Times Back" - reprise)


The next day Eric takes Ariel around his kingdom. Sebastian and some animals try to get Eric to kiss Ariel.("Kiss The Girl") Just before they kiss, Flotsam and Jetsam give the boat an 'electric shock'. ("Sweet Child" - reprise) As the second day ends Ariel wishes she could tell Eric everything; Triton worries about where his daughter has gone; Sebastian is concerned for Ariel since her time as a human is almost up, and Eric still dreams of finding the girl who saved him. ("If Only" - quartet)


On Ariel's last day as a human the contest takes place. All the foreign princesses sing to Eric to the tune of "Part of Your World" to see if he can recognize the girl he's looking for. ("The Contest") All of them fail to do so. Ariel chooses at that moment to dance for him, and Eric picks her. Ursula appears, floods the ballroom and tells Ariel that the sun has set and she has lost. Flotsam and Jetsam grab Ariel and take her back to the sea, while Eric races to his ship to save her.


King Triton arrives to confront his sister and rescue Ariel, who who has returned to being a mermaid. He agrees to take Ariel's place, and Ursula celebrates her victory,as she claims the trident and declares herself queen. ("Poor Unfortunate Souls" - reprise) She banishes Triton with a wave of the trident. Eric's ship arrives and while he distracts Ursula, Ariel takes the magic shell and has lethal power at her will, as well as her voice. Ursula uses the trident to raise the sea level higher, having Eric's interference out of the way. Ursula begins to sweet talk Ariel, saying she can turn her human again and reunite her with her prince. Ariel starts to believe her and begins to hand the shell over. Ursula believes the shell is within her grasp and tells Ariel that she will rot on the ocean floor forever, but before it is in her grasp, Ariel yanks it away and smashes it, which destroys Ursula. Triton returns from banishment and is reunited with his daughter.


Triton soon realizes that Ariel really does love Eric and transforms her back into a human with her voice restored. ("If Only" - reprise) Ariel and Eric are married and Triton declares peace between the humans and merpeople. ("Finale")


Differences from the 1989 film

  • The shark chase sequence that introduces Ariel and Flounder has been removed.
  • Ursula is King Triton's sister. Although this had been planned for the movie, it was left out eventually.
  • Ursula and Triton are equal, and upon the death of their father, Poseidon, Ursula received the magic shell while her brother received the trident. Each ruled half the oceans, until Ursula's cruelty and use of black magic led to Triton deposing her and assuming full reign over the entire ocean world.
  • Sebastian is not present when Ariel saves Eric and later sings to him on the shore.
  • The "Under the Sea" sequence has been moved to after King Triton destroys Ariel's collection of human things.
  • The magic shell allows Ursula to spy on people, so she does not "use" Flotsam and Jetsam's eyes as in the film.
  • The "Daughters of Triton" and "Fathoms Below" songs have additional and new lyrics, and many new songs were added, as noted below.
  • Ursula's alter ego Vanessa and Eric's sheepdog Max are not included.
  • In place of the Vanessa subplot, there is a contest with foreign princesses singing songs to see if Eric can recognize any of them to have Ariel's voice.
  • It is Ariel, not Eric who destroys Ursula by breaking the magic shell.
  • The keys of Sebastian's songs were raised because Tituss Burgess is a tenor unlike Samuel E. Wright, the original voice of Sebastian, who is a baritone.

Neptune reigns in the city of Bristol. ... Samuel E. Wright (born November 20, 1948 in Camden, South Carolina) is an American actor who voiced Sebastian the crab in Disneys The Little Mermaid. ...

Response

Audience response of the targeted family demographic to the musical has been generally positive.[7] Critics have given the production a mixed response, with some praising the show,[8] and some calling it "less than witty."[9] and "bloated"[10] The New York Times was especially critical, saying that the "charm-free" musical is "stripped of the movie’s generation-crossing appeal. Coherence of plot, endearing quirks of character, even the melodious wit of the original score (supplemented by new, substandard songs...) have been swallowed by an unfocused spectacle...."[11] Time Magazine, however, commented, "It was one of the most ravishing things I have ever seen on a Broadway stage."[12] The New York Times is an internationally known daily newspaper published in New York City and distributed in the United States and many other nations worldwide. ...
